Bastille - Of The Night (Fix8 Remix)

This track accounts for two of the most happiest moments in the past year, when 1) someone played it for me, 2) Sonic Youth played it for, well, not just me. Happiness now occurs everytime I play it for myself. And that is awesome.

Philadelphia, PA’s Literature features Kevin Attics, Nathaniel Cardaci, Chris Schackerman, and Seth Whaland. Attics, who’d written for numerous music trades as a teen, met Cardaci and Whaland at the house venue they both operated in Austin, TX. Cardaci and Whaland each ran small imprint labels and, a million adventures later, the trio decided to form a band. Upon moving to Philadelphia the group befriended Schackerman who also joined the fold. 

In 2012, following a well-received single and a track on Gerard Cosloy’s “Casual Victim Pile II” compilation they released their debut album, "Arab Spring," which became a cult hit within the indiepop community. That album is sharp and immediate, almost mod-ish in its attack, but always tuneful and going for melody where it counts. They toured the US in support, and have performed with the likes of The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Eternal Summers, Ted Leo, Sic Alps, White Fence, Gentlemen Jesse, Hospitality, and Brown Recluse. They also appeared on Terre T's Cherry Blossom Clinic.

In 2013 they released a follow-up 7”, “Tie Dye” and contributed a track to Esopus Magazine alongside artists like Jens Lekman and The Shins. They also played at that year’s NYC Popfest, which helped cement the buzz that was steadily growing amongst savvy pop fans. "Arab Spring" was treated to a re-mastered re-press, which followed the first pressing and quickly sold out.

Autumn of 2013 saw the band begin work on their second album, "Chorus," with lauded engineer Gary Olson (whose body of work includes records by Crystal Stilts, Mad Scene and The Beets) at his Marlborough Farms studio in Brooklyn, NY. As a beautiful autumn turned into one of the harshest winters in recent memory, Olson and the band began stretching out, enhancing the album with studio techniques dating back to the late 60s including true-tape flanging, sending vocals through Leslie speaker cabinets, and the same analog style of automatic double-tracking created at Abbey Road Studios.

The result is an album that is as immediate as it is timeless, full of effortlessly catchy and well-crafted tunes that echo pop legends like Smiths and Orange Juice. All of that time in the studio has resulted in a rich, considered sound that puts the band's arranging and playing front and center. "Chorus" is one of the most exciting pop records in years, and marks Literature at true contenders.

Literature - New Jacket

Te souviens-tu de tenir sur deux pieds
Comme la sueur nous garda de brûler
Alors que nous hantions bien des sangs
Te souviens-tu de se cueillir en bandes
À poils hérissés de nos nuits écoulés
Comme l’on cracha l’ombre de nos mains

Te souviens-tu de nos voltiges aux lianes
Alors que de nos danses se moulaient
Des ellipses qui vomissent magma
Te souviens-tu des vies toutes immobiles
Priant leur graine de se semer au loin
Décharnées de sucre et consumées

Te souviens-tu de déserter permanent 
Les entrailles enterrées, d’aller fumer
En atmosphère perlant d’inondations
Te souviens-tu des gouttes d’astéroïdes
Comme elles se poudraient en boule
Donnaient chair à nos célestes os

Te souviens-tu du moindre souvenir
Qui n’aie encore le goût de nos oublis
Parfumé en lendemains de noirceurs

Issus de l’issue : la belle mort qui brille
Aveuglant les yeux qu’elle chevauche 
Alors qu’à s’y attendre son galop cause
Et cause dans la tête de vieux morceaux
Que ni cris ni silences ne peuvent conclurent

Mort Thermique

We're delighted to be teaming up with long-time AIH pal Gorgeous Bully as well as relative newcomers Something Anorak, for a four track split 7" due for release 26th June.

The two bands met whilst both living and playing in Cornwall in early 2011 and bonded over a shared love of boisterous lo-fi music. In the five years since, Something Anorak, consisting of cousins James and Chris Barrett, moved to Bristol; released an album on Howling Owl and split time writing music between working as a plumber and a postman. Meanwhile, Gorgeous Bully's Thomas Crang moved to Manchester and with no such restrictions on his time, has spent 5 years of unemployment ascending the stairs of bedroom-pop stardom whilst sharing a steady stream of songs that are "ugly and bummed and uncomfortable in all the right ways.

The split features two tracks from each band and is set to be released as a cherry red 7" record on June 26th.
